Default Rsx headlight

Ok I know some of you guys think this a worthless thread but just so i know forsure. I have bought PNP hids and Depo headlights.(They are crap, Whatever. its my G/f car. she wanted them) THe headlights a pushed all the way down and the lights are shining really high. Is there any other way to get the beam lower. thanks for any info.

Isnt there a height adjustment like with factory headlight housings? Otherwise try rigging the backside higher so it aims lower. Give me some more info about this kit, what parts it came with and most importantly did you replace the factory housings with the aftermarket ones?

Yea there is. I have it all the way down, but its not down enough. I did replace the factory headlight with the depo type r style one. there was no shield that came with the HID kit. Its just a xenon hid kit. Is there a place on the backside of the headlights to adjust them?

The bulbs themselves have no adjustment, but I have rigged some ghetto ones at my dealer for a customer to aim lower, but other than aiming the housing itself like a factory headlight I am not sure, aftermarket is so unpredictable. Just try having all the bolts for the housing loose, then press down on the front enough to "aim" it lower, then tighten the bolts. Otherwise if you have tried all you can, work on getting the bulb itself to kind of point lower. You just have to try it all to find out what works.
